A Poem for the Aggressive Merchandising Season

Visualize home/ says the slick cover/ paisley's back in, contrast pillows to hold things together . . .

Helen lives in Texas with her husband, kids, and a lovely but hapless cat named Billy. She’s been writing since she can remember. Some notable early examples . . . Chronicles of Narnia meets the Bobbsey Twins and Nancy Drew fanfiction. Now she writes YA and adult stories, most with a touch of fantasy or magical realism.
